Description
Independent Brewery producing a wide range of Cask, Keg, Bottled and Canned beers. Products available direct from the on-site shop and tours are available about twice a month. Most beers are now gluten free.

From modest origins in July 2011, which saw Nene Valley Brewery operating with just a two-and-a-half-barrel facility, the company moved into its new riverside premises at the end of that year and now operates a 15-barrel installation. Brewing is undertaken once a week with a range of products distributed to local pubs, wholesalers and direct to the public.

Cask at Brewers Tap, Southsea. Light malty aroma. Copper gold. Thin creamy white head. Malty sweetness all the way. A hint of grains and nuts. Some light bitterness into the finish. Medium bodied. Slick. Flat carbonation. Long muted finish. Way to sweet and sickly for me to be interested in sessioning this. When another beer gave me a real aftertaste I used what I had left of this like water to cleanse my palate.
